During Greek class with the teacher from Elliniki Agogi, the students had the opportunity to live the Christmas experience as in antiquity.
The ancestor of the Christmas tree in ancient Greece was neither the fir nor the cypress, but an olive branch – the Ieresioni!
Theseus offered the god Apollo an Ierision (decorated olive branches) on his return from Crete to Athens. And we want to share with you the Iereisions that we made in our class!
